To work on my bicycle...

Cycled to work on the Principia hardtail today. It took all of 1hr 20mins to cover the 21km in each direction. It was a refreshing change from the usual driving commute despite my rather inadequate physical condition.

Dark clouds gathered towards the evening and I decided to leave work a little earlier than planned to avoid cycling home in a downpour in the dark--a decidedly poor combination. As it turned out, I had a drizzle accompany me all the way home. The Marmot Precip rain jacket kept my perspiration in and the rain water out. I wasn't sure if I referred this to just getting drenched by the rain. In any case, I decided to keep the bright yellow jacket on for visibility in traffic.

Now if only the government would widen the sidewalks or at least build several park connector highways...
